Nokia 6680 is losing the battle to 6630!!?

If you are asking yourselves, why 6680 is going to be so cheap?
Well there is a simple answer if we can believe in Jbenchmark test results.
It’s because 6680 is pretty worse in performances than 6630! That’s doesn’t mean that 6680 is not amazing good phone, no doubt about that, but my expectations was that 6680 is going to be much, much, much better...
In conclusion: seems that we are getting almost a 200 000 useless and unnoticeable colours and very, very noticeable slowdown in performance!!

Essentially I start topic because I think that this is a really, really surprising news, isn’t!?

As I said I was expect that 6680 is going to be much better phone...

Is it such a big deal? None of these phones were made to be gaming phones. The only gaming phone, N-gage has much slower CPU/performance than either of these phones.

I think 6680 will respond fast enough in the menus etc. Could the benchmark results have something to do with firmware?

the biggest difference in the test was in the user interface so i guess slow menus and similar things is gonna plague this model

shame

Well I just bought a 6680, and frankly i kind of disagree with the benchmark...

just like the previous posts say, these are not gaming phones... it's like comparing apples and oranges...

The speed difference IS there but is barely not: BARELY noicable, I never install anything in the phone memory (sonething i learned with the 6630) and all apps are running smoothly.

I do have one complaint though... WHY THE BLOODY HELL WOULD YOU USE UNDERPOWERED LEDS FOR YOUR FLASH NOKIA!!!!!(dumbasses) celarly in the camphone flash market Samsung is the clear winner... Flash LEDs are 10x brighter than this crap on the 6680. Nokia needs to do their hmework somemore.

All in all, the 6680 is the same as the 6630, exept for some OS tweaks and he 2nd camera.

It's really user preference that decides the fate of this phone.

He he, i just figured out the flash yesterday, excellent flash! Better than samsung's. I find the 6680 to be a really competent phone. Heck, i'm using it to type this reply!

A possible explanation to why the 6680 is slower in jbenchmark is that it has to render a lot of extra colors.

Snake EX works without lag, and thats about how far my gaming interrest go on a business phone...

Love the two cameras, and the active standby screen !

Man, quite interesting... Well, if you take a closer look to the "JBenchmark3D Best Result details" table, you will notice that a 6630, is much much much better than THE KING (XBOX that is). Obviously the 6630 has a fill rate of 2200 KTexels/s, while Xbox has 1860 KTexels/s. Don't let me even get started with the polygons. Odd....

Forgot....6680 ROCKS
